    6 6-Way
    Dennis S.

    I really enjoyed this place! It does take you back in time to those days of diner eating!. While in Cincinnati one must try the 5 way although I went one step extra and did the 6 way (must try) with jalapeño caps. I actually sat at the counter which made the experience more authentic. Service was excellent very kind and attentive. Please if in cincy check this chain out you may like it!!

    Service was very good. The three way was as good as anyone else's chili. I saw some of their sandwiches which looked really good. Parking on site.

    Crinkle cut fries

    Seated at the counter since it was pretty busy. The waitress came by quickly and dropped of menus and took our drink orders. She came back pretty quick. My wife ordered the classic Cheeseburger and onion rings. I ordered the Cuban. Ok, this place , Blue Ash Chili, by name, you'd think was just another "chili parlor". Big NOPE on that. Plenty of other tasty items on the menu. But, a Cuban sandwich? Not exaggerating here, it was one of the best tasting Cuban sandwiches I've had. And I've been to Miami! And, it was huge. It comes in a hogie bun, grilled, just a touch of mustard, pickle, really tasty ham. Side order of crinkle cut fries, cooked crispy but not burnt or crunchy. The onion rings were real onions, not minced and formed into circles. All in all, really good food at a nice price, served up very quickly and with a smile. F you've not been to Blue Ash Chiki, you should try it!

    So much bacon in one sandwich: is that even legal?

    A meal at Blue Ash Chili is special - like a warm hug...from a Mom (or Dad) who really knows how to cook!! The multi-page menu offers dozens of options, and if those weren't enough, there's always a separate list of daily specials. The servers take good care of their customers; it's obvious from the camaraderie on the "sidelines" that the servers have been working together for a long time. This place has such a strong customer fan base that photos of some of their regulars are included in a huge mural by the entry. The Blue Ash Chili magic is waiting to turn you into a regular, too.

    Lemon Cake

    I got the Monte Cristo and it was 5 out of 5. Brussel Sprouts were amazing but was told it is only sold seasonal. My daughter had a Hawaiian dish. She had it before and loved it again. Service was 5 out of 5. We didn't know how to tip because there were so many. They split the tips. It was my Birthday so I ordered the lemon cake. Was told it won a award. Damn that was great too! They did an all around great job.

    Chorizo dog w/ Parmesan fries!

    Service was quick, food arrived hot! Got the chili 6 way, chili corn dog, and the chorizo dog! They was all stellar ... hot and great quality for the price!

    3-way and 4-way and onion rings.
    Ann S.

    Been on my list to try for years and finally got around to it. They have an expansive menu and by looks of the tables around us, people were taking advantage of it! But we were here for chili. We were there at lunch and there was a short line (that grew lingerie after we were seated - be prepared for a bit of a wait if you go during prime times). Onion rings were terrific. Our 3- and 4-ways were good, though we usually like our Cincinnati chili a little thicker. Still good taste, not spicy. We will come back to try other items on the menu! Servers were pleasant and efficient. Strip mall restaurant interior and parking lot.

    Side of fries
    Cindi R.

    Another one of our favorites of Cincinnati. Very attentive service. Loved my Chorizo burger as its spice was perfect. There was also plenty of avocado no skimping here. Busy establishment quick service but never felt rushed.

    Came here for the first time and had the chicken sandwich... it was crazy good. The flavor was…read moreabsolutely incredible and it tasted so fresh. The menu in general is small but full of classic American food with a bit of a modern twist. We also really enjoyed the fountain soda machine. It's great that they use a local company instead of just using Coke-a-Cola! The ordering system is different than at most restaurants (you order at the counter before getting served at your seat), but the line moves quickly. What was especially awesome about our experience at Northstar was the service. There was a very slight mistake on our order (a burger that we asked for no cheese came with cheese), and, although we didn't mind at all, Northstar went above and beyond to make it right.

    I have nothing but amazing things to say about NorthStar! Such amazing food, friendly staff and an…read moreoverall great ambiance. I stopped by to get a salad for lunch and it was made wrong twice but they handled it so promptly and very kindly. I felt bad but they reassured me it wasn't my fault. I recently had an issue with a local restaurant where the owner berated me for a mistake they made so this was such a breath of fresh air. I'm a faithful customer and I'll continue to come back. Excellent place for my family. P.S. the Kenwood salad, enchiladas, fish sandwich, and margherita pizza add prosciutto are some of my favorites! Honestly everything on the menu is good, you won't be disappointed.

    I'm a fan of McAlister's Deli, so I frequent various locations often. The food is made fresh and I…read morelove their potato salad. This location is pretty close to me so it's pretty convenient although it's not my favorite location. I say this because even though the main food order is right, they normally forget to add a pickle in, or I order a large potato salad and sometimes get the regular size. I started ordering the large because they often don't fill their already small container up. I have had times where it's a scoop and you can see the bottom of the container and sides around it. I'm like come on lol, I paid for this. But because I carry out or my hubby goes he doesn't check. But the good news is this time-I had a full container and that made happy! As well as both of us got our pickles! It's the little things. I normally order the Italian 12" and hubs gets the Spicy Turkey 12". We eat half and save the other half for the next day. But this time I veered and ordered the Chicago French Dip. Tip: Put it in the air fryer the next day to crisp and warm it up! 400° 5-7 min is perfect for us. And I'll add some jalapeños and banana peppers-so yummy. I forgot that I had ordered this before but remembered as soon as I took a bite. It's kinda bland, to be honest. It has carrots on it too which is kinda weird for me. That's just me though. It doesn't distract from the sandwich though so don't be scared. Lol The roast beef is a thicker cut so if you prefer shaved, this isn't that. The au jus is not beefy just salty. So kinda underwhelming. So I ditched the au jus the next day and open faced it like I do in my air fryer with jalapeño slices, roasted red pepper deli slices, and banana peppers. I added a shmear of mayo and a lil mustard. It was really good. Packed some flavor in there. For dessert I got a white macadamia nut cookie because they were all out of their toffee crunch cheesecake. Hubs guilty pleasure is their colossal carrot cake so he got that. It wasn't colossal this time but he was fine with that nonetheless. One more thing to note: If you have their membership and have points, you can get a free ice tea or a 6" sandwich. They will not apply it to a 12". So order two 6" if you want the 12" and you'll get one free. They won't substitute for a cookie or cake though. Not at this location at least.

There was not a wait when we arrived and placed our order at the counter. I liked that they had a pick 2 option because I couldn't decide which items I wanted to try. You get to pick 2 halves of any item to create one great plate. I ended up getting the McAllister Club Wrap with Black Forest Ham, bacon, roasted turkey, sharp cheddar and Swiss cheese, spring mix, tomato and honey mustard. They accommodated my request to heat up the wrap. Also selected the Pecanberry salad with strawberry, blueberry, pecan, grilled chicken and a spring lettuce mix. The fat free raspberry pecan vinaigrette dressing was very tasty. Also had the McAlister Club and the pick 2 with club salad and chicken sandwich. For my drink tried the world famous tea with peach flavoring. The dining area was clean with both indoor and outdoor area seating. The staff was friendly taking our order and also delivering the food to the table and picking up our plates when we were finished eating.
